[LAU] Sneakernet advice

I'm in a bit of a pickle lately and I was hoping for some advice. I'm currently in a situation where I have access to a computer but not from my laptop that I want Linux on. I'm used to using Fedora Core 3 with Planet CCRMA, however that is completely impossible without having an Internet connection seeing as how everything is managed using yum or apt. I've tried Dynebolic on my laptop and it completely sucked, the sound card didn't work properly. I just tried Ubuntu 8.04 and it worked beautifully, then I found Ubuntu Studio which is based on 8.04, however it's only available in DVD format and I don't have a DVD burner on the computer that has access. Before I get the answer I'm expecting I'll say that I cannot put the laptop on the same network as the computer that has access, that is not allowed where I'm at. Is there a way to download the ISO file and run it from a USB Flash drive? Or any other suggestions, such as better CD based distributions? -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCA/FA/S/O d+(--) s+: a-- C+++ L++ P E-- W++ N- o K? w O-- M- V- PS+ PE- Y+ PGP t- 5-- X R- !tv b++ DI++ D+ G+ e+/++ h--- r--/+++ z+++(*) ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------
